Don′t call it hip-hop because it's really isn't
If you listen it′s similar but just a little different
Rhythmically delivered lyrics over wicked beats
Are the end of this and hip-hop′s similarities
'Cause I don′t bounce and I don't do rap hands
See look at me I look like an ass, man
No crew, no gin and juice
I′m no Dr. Dre I'm more like Dr. Seuss
I wouldn′t use the word rapper it's rather inaccurate
I do talk fast use rhyming words like immaculate
Rubber baby buggy bumpers, this is dumb
I don't rap about the ladies all or individuals
Or call my bitchin′ about the world political
I don′t send shout-outs I don't ever front
I just discuss a bunch of goofy stuff and say "what"
No DJ, no need for turntables
Just give me my box, a 58, and a cable
An on stage DI and some monitors, too
Get the reverb of my mix sound man, thank you
So where′s Queens at? What? Where′s Queens at? What?
Dude let me show you on this street map
It's right here over Roosevelt, across the East river
That′s enough of that crap
I got some raps to deliver
Killer outta sight, it′s the rappist delight
When goosebumps are jumpin' outta your skin, I win
I don′t dance, never, not a god damn chance
I stand in the back clutching a cup in my stance
One hand in my pocket, head nodding, hunched over
Sippin' cheap, yellow beer, clear out before the show′s over
When a rapper says "throw your hands up" I don't
When a rapper says "make some noise" I won't
Bossing your audience is awfully pompous
So I′ll never do it, that′s the STD promise
Don't push me 'cause I′m close to the edge
And I′m tryin' not to lose my head
In the west, I′m the raddest, I'm the best, I′m the rappist
In the street I've not a drop of cred
Indeed, I smoke weed, I rarely write without it
But I don′t really feel that means I need to rap about it
I guess I often write song by my formula
Which is 3s followed by 3 es
But never open going "yo, yo!"
When I hear a rapper do that I go "oh, no!"
Though I′m not implyin' that you don′t know what you're doin′
But often times awful rhymes do ruin an otherwise perfectly fine instrumental
I think you should avoid ink and write with a pencil
And erase the parts that don't sound so hot
This′ll all be covered in my workshop entitled "This is How to Write a Rhyme"
At least it's how to write it in a style that's mine
Don′t call it hip-hop because it really isn't
It′s just a little different, did you listen as I did it
I just spit a mile a minute now I'll hit it 'n quit it
I′m only kiddin′, you with it? You in it? You get it?
